Hi all,
I feel so disappointed with myself :cry:. I can't believe I gave in so easily!! I am on week 9 and today, unexpectedly I gave in and ate food...at work! I mean it wasn't even some special meal or event !
Some teachers had brought in a range of European food for the students...there was all sorts there. I saw it at 8.30 this morning when I arrived at my meeting, all open and smelling wonderful . At break I returned to find much of it still there, and had a small nibble. I returned at lunch time and had what can only be described as an extended nibble !
The food was very nice, but when I look back at what I ate I can't imagine how many calories/carbs/fat I've eaten! I am sure I will have knocked myself out of ketosis. I get weighed on Thursday evening. Will I be back in ketosis by then?
I was trying to put what I've learned so far into practice but somehow crooked thinking got the better of me. This just makes me all the more worried about what will happen when I reach goal... will I just pile all the weight back on again?
On a more positive note, tonight I needed to go to the supermarket to get a few essentials such as nappies. Crooked thinking tried to get me, I walked down all of the wrong aisles trying to convince myself that it would be OK to have a bit of this or that. I hovered for some time at the chocolate, then I remembered about the adult/child states of mind. As hard as it was, I forced my adult to take over and I left without any forbidden items! Thank God I stopped the rot then, or else I may have spiralled out of control.
Anyone else go through something similar? Did it affect your weight loss? Did you go out of ketosis? Did you tell your councillor?
Also i had wanted to drop to 3 packs today after having so many illicit calories, but couldn't bring myself to do it because all i9 wanted to do was eat more real food, so eating the pack stopped me going any further. Was this the right thing to do?
Thanks
